SHORTRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL, INDIANAPOLIS, IND., WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 4. 1933. TWO CENTS

Some Nice Material!

JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS
By Fletcher E. Humphrey.
Although it is not the custom of
this column to boast unnecessarily
about any particular school achievement, the writer feels that it is in
keeping to break the old bonds and
come out with the facts;
—o—
Shortridge has a winning quintet!
Friday's game definitely proved this.
Spectators of thc Shortridge-Tech
game could not help but observe the
marked finish which the Blue Devils
developed in their heavy vacation
practice.
—o—
And what's more, Shortridge has
the invaluable support of the press!
Any team that can tie Edwards of
Tech, up in a four-in-hand during
the entire game is certainly worth
noticing, and supporting, too! With
a little more finish, what is to prevent Shortridge from going to the
State Tourney? Now I ask you.
are we going to the State this year,
or are we going to the State? All
we need is the proper SUPPORT,
and the proper support must come
from YOU!
—o—
Thinking of starting '33 out right?
Well, then, thc writer suggests that
you start it in the proper frame of
mind, or with a better slant towards life, by reading Vash Young's
"Let's Start Over Again." The author, who also wrote "A Fortune to
Share," brings out some very interesting points, which, although
they are not new, rightly deserve
to be instilled in the minds of the
people of the present day. In fact
these points were practically obliterated in thc pell mell mad rush of
the life of the '20's. If you are
looking for something to soothe
your mind from the general boredom of things, here lies the happy
solution.
The junior class of Shortridge nette Hiatt, vice-president: Robert
recently elected the class officers of Mueller, treasurer; Aline Bailey
the year. Reading left to right: secretary; and Bill K«ehne vaude-
Don Morrison, president: Mary- ville chairman. —
